The internet is an awesome way to quickly find tons of useful information. It is a network overflowing with scholars, experts and even Average Joes who are way more informed on a given topic than you. It can be a wonderful tool to learn new things. The problem, however, is the internet is equally filled with “know-it-alls” who really know next to nothing but are more than happy to give you terrible, misguided, or just plain stupid advice, especially when it comes to expensive electronics. Most of us know better, but in 2015 there are still a slew of people who will believe anything they read online.

Case in point. Have you heard of the rice trick for repairing liquid damaged devices like an iPhone or Macbook? The trick is this: stick your damaged device in a bowl of rice for a few hours and--Voila!--it's as good as fixed. The liquid is gone and your worries are over. It's an innocent enough assumption, I guess. Sure, we all know rice does a good job at absorbing water, but that's only part of the problem when you are dealing with liquid damaged electronics. Most of the time it isn't even water we are dealing with but some sugary, sticky liquid like soda or beer. Rice may have been a food staple for centuries, but when it comes to electronics, it simply has zero ability to clean, repair, or remove corrosion from damaged components.
